Ratangad Trek

The Jewel Fort of Sahyadris

Ratangad is the Jewel fort of Sahyadris. We approach the fort by walking on flat ground and then thick forest canopy. One hour into the thick forest will lead us to a series of 5 firmly fitted steel ladders leading to the beautiful caves. From the caves, the trail towards the top is through knee deep grass. On the top of Ratangad fort, there is a giant hole called ‘needle’ in the mountain caused by wind erosion. The Sahyadris giants AMK, Ajobagad, Kalsubai surround Ratangad.
